Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has named one thing that Bayern Munich have over Chelsea, and many Blues fans will agree.
We watched on last night as Bayern beat Chelsea 3-1 in the Champions League but the result probably suggests it was easier than it actually was.
EXCLUSIVE! Chelsea add new centre back name to list of targets and could move on him in January!!
I think Chelsea pretty much gifted Bayern all three of their goals with mistakes basically. They just didn’t defend Bayern’s first goal well enough and it was far too easy for the ball to be bundled into the goal as many Blues players switched off.
Chelsea soon found themselves 2-0 down when Moises Caicedo dragged Harry Kane down in the penalty area, which was not a good move from the usually 100% reliable centre midfielder.
Cole Palmer did grab a goal back for Chelsea with a fine run and then equally fine finish to bring it to 2-1, and many of us thought a comeback might be on the cards.
Gusto’s turn to mess up
But then in the second half after Chelsea had another decent spell, Malo Gusto was closed down quick when Chelsea tried to play out from the back and under pressure, he passed it straight to Kane to score his second of the night with ease really.
Experience was the difference
As many of us Chelsea fans have been saying for a long time now, this squad just lacks experience and some more balance in that sense.
And Maresca agrees….
As reported by Nizaar Kinsella of The BBC, Maresca said after the game:
“In terms of experience, there was a huge difference. Even with that, we competed in the right way in this stadium against this team. I came here before with different teams, it is so difficult to come here and compete, you can’t come here and dominate for 90 minutes.”
Maresca just doesn’t cut it. He is an idiot, clueless when it comes to sound team selection. Point 1: Why does he persist in playing Reece James out of position just to accommodate Malo Gusto, who, in my opinion is utterly useless as a fullback? He is responsible for the 3rd goal. He then substitutes Reece but Gusto is allowed to continue. Point 2: Why did he play Cole Palmer on the right wing instead of his favourite position, just behind the striker and leaves Estevoa Wilian ( who is a natural and gifted right winger) on the bench? He moves Enzo Fernandez into Palmer’s position ( behind the striker) and Reece James into Enzo’s position (defensive midfield) so as to accommodate his pet Malo Gusto.
Maresca is the one who is inexperienced. Player like Estevao was introduced 10mins to go, he moved James to deep midfield which has never worked, sold Madueke and bought Gittens, are you kidding?, dumped Chilwell and bought Hato. I know he’s experimenting with my club
